A close reading of his conversation with the woman opens unexpected questions about the opening chapters of Bereishit—and the nature of temptation. http://media.yutorah.org/yuriets/2026/1708/1190976.MP3 Thu, 08 Oct 2026 12:53:34 GMT 3773 https://www.yutorah.org/lectures/1189281/I-Did-the-Hokey-Pokey,-But-I-Turned-Myself-AroundMultiple-Perspectives-on-Teshuva:-Heaven,-Community,-and-Self Kahn, Rabbi Ari I Did the Hokey Pokey, But I Turned Myself Around - Multiple Perspectives on Teshuva: Heaven, Community, and Self - Sep 17, 2026 - A lecture that sets three perspectives on teshuva—God’s, the individual’s, and the community’s—against one another, exposing the fault lines where divine forgiveness, personal memory, and public trust do not line up. http://media.yutorah.org/yuriets/2026/1708/1189281.MP3 Thu, 17 Sep 2026 10:10:56 GMT 4167 https://www.yutorah.org/lectures/1188240/Not-Blowing-the-ShofarListening-to-Angels Kahn, Rabbi Ari Not Blowing the Shofar - Listening to Angels - Sep 10, 2026 - If the shofar can save us in a time of judgment, how do we remain silent when Rosh Hashanah falls on Shabbat? http://media.yutorah.org/yuriets/2026/1708/1188240.MP3 Thu, 10 Sep 2026 12:55:03 GMT 3739 https://www.yutorah.org/lectures/1187231/Erasure Kahn, Rabbi Ari Erasure - Sep 3, 2026 - Hester panim is not a new idea at the end of Devarim. It has an antecedent — and it belongs to a larger topic of hiding, and of erasing, the other. Sometimes erasure punishes. Sometimes it heals. http://media.yutorah.org/yuriets/2026/1708/1187231.MP3 Thu, 03 Sep 2026 09:12:07 GMT 3402 https://www.yutorah.org/lectures/1186566/Perpetual-Acceptance Kahn, Rabbi Ari Perpetual Acceptance - Aug 27, 2026 - A single unprecedented Hebrew verb at Arvot Moav — "you became a nation," in the past tense — raises the question of whether Israel's covenant was broken by the Golden Calf or simply renewed, and whether "today" ever really means today. http://media.yutorah.org/yuriets/2026/1708/1186566.MP3 Thu, 27 Aug 2026 14:34:53 GMT 2516 https://www.yutorah.org/lectures/1185983/Bidirectional-Morality Kahn, Rabbi Ari Bidirectional Morality - Aug 20, 2026 - What appears at first to be a collection of unrelated commandments may in fact be a carefully constructed lesson in moral consciousness http://media.yutorah.org/yuriets/2026/1708/1185983.MP3 Thu, 20 Aug 2026 14:44:36 GMT 2595 https://www.yutorah.org/lectures/1185430/In-Search-of-the-King Kahn, Rabbi Ari In Search of the King - Aug 13, 2026 - A cryptic phrase echoes through Parashat Shoftim: “do not turn right or left.” Tracing that thread uncovers a surprising connection between Sinai, Moshe, the king, Hakhel, and the enduring quest for the covenantal center. http://media.yutorah.org/yuriets/2026/1708/1185430.MP3 Thu, 13 Aug 2026 14:26:03 GMT 3288 https://www.yutorah.org/lectures/1184916/Exclusivity Kahn, Rabbi Ari Exclusivity - Aug 6, 2026 - A close reading of a single verse in Parashat Re'eh uncovers a surprising theme running through the entire section. What begins as a discussion of idolatry develops into a profound reflection on holiness, sacred space, and the significance of divine choice. http://media.yutorah.org/yuriets/2026/1708/1184916.MP3 Thu, 06 Aug 2026 15:02:56 GMT 3163 https://www.yutorah.org/lectures/1183899/Perpetual-Fear Kahn, Rabbi Ari Perpetual Fear - Jul 23, 2026 - Rabbi Yochanan’s introduction to the story of Kamtza and Bar Kamtza is as famous as it is puzzling: “Fortunate is the person who fears constantly.” What does fear have to do with Jerusalem’s destruction? Through the teachings of Chazal, the Rambam, Rav Soloveitchik, and the Rebbe of Kotzk-Pilov, this shiur explores a question that remains as urgent today as it was two thousand years ago. http://media.yutorah.org/yuriets/2026/1708/1183899.MP3 Thu, 23 Jul 2026 07:42:16 GMT 4445 https://www.yutorah.org/lectures/1183179/Like-Dreamers Kahn, Rabbi Ari Like Dreamers - Jul 16, 2026 - Sefer Devarim is more than a review of Israel's history. It is Moshe's interpretation of it. A study of the spies, Reuven and Gad, and the power of Moshe's retelling. http://media.yutorah.org/yuriets/2026/1708/1183179.MP3 Thu, 16 Jul 2026 10:08:43 GMT 3811
